Subject: [FIX 3.4+][PATCH] b43: N-PHY: increase initial value of "mind" in RSSI calibration
Date: Tue, 19 Mar 2013 07:52:48 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1363675968-20433-1-git-send-email-zajec5@gmail.com> (raw)
We're using "mind" variable to find the VCM that got the best polling
results. For each VCM we calculte "currd" which is compared to the
"mind". For PHY rev3+ "currd" gets values around 14k-40k. Looking for a
value smaller than 40 makes no sense, so increase the initial value.
This fixes a regression introduced in 3.4 by commit:
e0c9a0219a8f542e3946fe972a68aacf8c3f906c
(my BCM4322 performance dropped from 18,4Mb/s to 9,26Mb/s)
